User Experience Supports Findabilty and Usability
Sometimes a simple quote can say so much. I thought, I should share this article written by Kim Krause Berg:
“A truly usable web site is a fluid, almost living entity. It’s expected to grow, convert traffic to sales, be crawled by search engine bots, be ranked and found in search engines and be talked about. Machines can be programmed to follow certain code to get what they need from web pages. But you and I are feeling, flesh skinned, impressionable people. Our environments and computer models vary, as do our ages and ability to see, hear and think.
We come to the Web knowing it will be a journey. We come knowing that for every action we take on a web site, that same action will likely be handled differently on a different web site with a different design. We pick and choose sites which offer the best user experience.
We are not machines.”
